Dr. Gonzo

Is he a FA? What would we have to give up for him?

Salary cap probably covered if Grundy leaves? And a potential Hibberd/Melksham retirement? I don't think he's really what we need, I'd prefer some guys with polish/elite kicking skills but he would be an upgrade on a guy like Jordon (who couldn't really crack it in our best 22 anyway).

AFL members tix go on sale at midday and it is going to be a ****show with all games on sale at once. If the site doesn't crash it will be a miracle.

Ok now a question - what did you make of some of the structuring in the first half, particularly allowing Swans +2 and 3 at the contest while we had +2 and 3 behind the ball? Was this due as much to Sydney putting extras around the contest as us putting extras behind the ball? Was it an insight into how we will structure up in September, was it more to do with the length of the SCG or the fact we wanted to play more of a slow, keepings off style in a dead rubber rather than a physical contested game? If the latter it didn't work as it was a bruising affair but a good lead-in to finals (I think a better lead-in than the bruise free training drill the Pies had).

More a comment than a question but how much do you love this team. They never feel out of a game and brute competitors like Viney and Petracca just seem to will things back in our favour when the going gets tough. We may not be the classiest team in the league but we are certainly the toughest and that is something I thought I'd never say as a Demons supporter. I bloody love it.

Like when Collingwood played Richmond on the 2018 prelim? Or Richmond played Geelong in the 2017 QF? Or any number of other instances I'm sure you'd find if you spent more than 5 seconds thinking about it? He's a bloody dill.

It's why they have the pre finals bye, the stuff about teams resting players was just bs

We also rolled them in the 88SF, a fantastic day at the G with a bumper crowd, some pre-game fisticuffs and the classic September Colliwobbles. I can't wait to play them again, I want to see Viney and Sparrow bulldozing them and knock them off their perch.

My 8yo will want to go, no way will he be right for school the next day by the time we get home and he unwinds and goes to bed around 1130pm (if we're lucky). Slap in the face to the top 4 teams and their supporters having it on Thursday instead of Friday night.

No touching!

Fantastic win Demons, never say die, tough, desperate, class Rest up and let's knock the stuffing out of the Pies

He cannot kick snap shots, always bellies the ball. I don't understand it.

I thought head chop but yeah, free kick either way surely

Kozzie!!

Sub Fritsch off FFS

We dominated that quarter.

I thought Nathan Jones was commentating for the first 1.5 quarters, turns out it's Burgoyne
